halifax what a rip off

[barracad]

can someone pls tell me when do i add the 8% i believe it is,and how do i work the 8% FOR 3500.

 

Please read the FAQs. You only add the 8% if it goes to court, and there is a spreadsheet available to work out the 8%.

Kelly first thing to do is read the claims pack..........thats what its for !!

 

If you are on benefits or low income there is a chance you may be exempt from the fees.

All depends on how much you are claiming as to how much you have to pay yourself.

 

You cannot go into a court fight unless you are equipped.....get some reading done !!

 

 

[barracad]

If your claim amount is £3500 then it will cost you £120 to issue the claim, but this can be added to the claim amount.

 

Are you on benefits etc? If so you may be entitled to reduced fees.

[kelly2006]

hi there and thanx for the fast reply,im not on ant benefits and my claim is for £4000.

[barracad]

The fee is £120.

[kelly2006]

ok thanx for that, pls can you tell me how do i work the % out

КТО - ТО МОЖЕТ ЗДЕСЬ ГОВОРИТЬ НА РУССКОМ ЯЗЫКЕ?

 

 

 

[kelly2006]

has neone go through the ombudsman for the return of there money from the banks instead of small claims courts if so how did i go for you,i have all my court papers here ready too file but just dnt have the £120

[MARTIN3030]

Kelly who do you think pays the ombudsmans wages?

 

The reason no one bothers to go to them is simply because they are on the banks side !!

 

Now is there anyone you know who will lend you 120 quid ?

beg steal or borrow it.....actually no dont steal it ..you will be looking as guilty of the banks ha ha.

 

Look at it this way you will be getting that back .....and more besides.

Lots of people here have found it hard to get it..but you must know someone ?

 

 

[kelly2006]

thanx martin3030 for yr fast replys,my heads in bits at the mo dnt know if im comin or going right now and feelin very frustrated with it all..... like i say i have all the papers but no money,if i do get the money 2 file court how long does it take for the bank 2 hand over the money they own do u have any clue on that plzzzzzzzzzzz very angry and frustrated mum of 2 x

[TBeckett100]

Would You Like To Borrow £120?

[TBeckett100]

sorry, cant you borrow £120?

[barracad]

It is impossible to say how long they will take. Halifax usually pay up fairly quickly, but it doesn't mean they definitely will in your case.

 

Basically, the sooner you file your claim and pay the £120, the sooner you will get your money from the bank.

[MARTIN3030]

Kelly I have heard of cases where sympathetic court staff have allowed payment to be made later,but that would only be a consideration if you were filing in person not online.

The procedure is that once your claim is acknowledged the bank have 28 days to respond.

If they are going to file a defence then they have to do that within 14 days of the acknowledgement of your claim by the court.

 

Best way to get some idea is to look at other cases.

 

Sometimes they settle a week after your filed claim........sometimes its 2 weeks

They may submit a defence then pay........theres no guaranteed answer for you.

You can be pretty cure that once your claim is filed and acknowledged theres a 99% chance it will be sorted within 3 weeks tops.

 

Try and keep a level head I know 2 kids is hard work.....but keep trying to think about where you can get hold of the 120.00

 

[kelly2006]

ok thanx every1 for yr help i will get right on2 it and find someone 2 lend my the money i will do it just watch this space lol

[kelly2006]
